F30 Transmission shifts fast in this video



At 1:46 can hear how it sounds from the outside, almost the sound of DCT.
Go to 2:56 to watch it shift.

Video also shows how he switches from Comfort to sport, to ECO pro.

I'm interested to know too if the new F30 and F32 335i will be getting the DCT instead of just a 335Is variant. I'd order an F32 with DCT in a heartbeat. The F30 is a nice evolution but not really into sedans.

I am however really disappointed they decided to use non LED bulbs in the rear tails and front headlight turn signals. But to maximize profit they are probably charging for it as part of a lighting package like every other german car company now.

It sounded kind of like a big Ford F150 a few times during the clip but it could have been the acceleration timing and where the cameraman was placed at.

The F30 is getting an 8 speed auto not DCT

Not sure on the specifics of this AT vs. the new 6er, but I've driven the 8 speed in that car and it shifts very quick. I was impressed.

I love the angle at 3:04 . best looking imo to see the headlights and the 3d effect of the grille
